A week after Bob Bashara was ordered to stand trial in the death of his wife, he is scheduled to return to court and be arraigned on charges including first-degree murder.

The arraignment follows his preliminary examination, which took place last week in Detroit. It included testimony from people who offered a glimpse into Bashara’s alternative lifestyle involving BDSM - bondage, discipline, sadomasochism and his plans for a new life with a mistress.

Bashara is scheduled to be arraigned at 9 a.m. before Wayne County Circuit Judge Vonda Evans.
